Original sin

Chapter 12 Scratch, Breadcrumbs, and Shack

Shen Shen rang the doorbell.

When Aunt Zhang heard this, she was ready to open the door. Chu Bin said to Aunt Zhang, "I'll go. You are my friend."

Aunt Zhang said "Oh" and went to work on her own.Chu Bin used to invite friends over to her house, and she was used to it.

Chu Bin opened the door and invited Shen Chen and Wang Lu into the living room. Chu Bin made tea for them himself, and then sat down on the sofa.

"Are you sure you really saw that monkey?" This was Shen Shen's first question.

Wang Lu looked at Shen Chen with some dissatisfaction. She felt that Shen Shen was too direct, and such an inquiry would give Chu Bin a bad psychological hint, making Chu Bin feel that Yin Hui's case was related to monkeys.

Sure enough, Chu Bin's face changed slightly: "Could the deaths of Yin Hui and Luo Jincheng have something to do with that monkey?"

Shen Chen did not deny it, and replied: "Yes, we suspect that they were killed by monkeys."

Monkey kills!Monkeys can kill people?

Chu Bin was even more convinced that he was not mistaken last night. He even felt that the monkey staring at him last night had a very vicious look in his eyes, as if he wanted his own life.

Wang Lu couldn't bear it any longer: "Chu Bin, don't be afraid, even though the deaths of Yin Hui and Luo Jincheng may have been done by monkeys, it doesn't mean that the monkey you saw last night was the one who killed them." Just, look at today's news, the monkeys on Qianling Mountain have become overrun, and from time to time they will go to the two urban districts to harass the residents. In July alone, there have been more than ten incidents of monkeys hurting people in the two urban districts. Now various departments We are all working hard to find a way to solve this problem. The place where you live happens to be at the intersection of the two urban areas, maybe what you see are only wild monkeys coming down from Qianling Mountain."

Only then did Shen Chen agree: "Yes, this possibility is not impossible, so don't scare yourself. Didn't you say that there is nothing between you and Yin Hui, so how could the murderer target you?"

"Captain Shen, that's not what you said last night. I don't care if there is anything between Yin Hui and me. It depends on what the murderer thinks. What if he is crazy and has to trouble me? ?Also, if it was really just a wild monkey, why did it stay outside my window all night? You don’t know how I got here last night, and I always think about that monkey, no matter what I do I can feel that its gaze has never left my body after turning it over and over again.”

Wang Lu took a look at Shen Chen. In her opinion, Chu Bin's situation was not good. She didn't know what Shen Shen had said to this guy last night, which made him a little dazed.

Shen Shen coughed lightly, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and lit one himself: "Take us upstairs to have a look."

Anyway, since it's already here, I have to go and see it.

Only then did Chu Bin lead the two of them upstairs.

Chu Bin's bedroom is very large, about 70 square meters, with a large floor-to-ceiling glass door and window facing the balcony, and a large bay window on the south side.

Even monkeys outside the bay window can't settle down, so don't ask, the monkey Chu Bin saw should be on the balcony.

"It was on the railing of the balcony at that time, here it is." Chu Bin opened the glass door and walked to the balcony and pointed to the railing on one side.

Shen Chen walked over, looked at it, picked up an imperceptible white fine foam on the balcony with his hand, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it, then put it to his mouth and licked it lightly, Chu Bin and Wang Lu frowned, this guy is not too dirty.

Shen Shen said, "It's the crumbs of the bread."

Chu Bin got excited, and he said: "I never eat in the bedroom. It's a habit I developed since I was a child. My parents didn't allow me to eat in the bedroom when I was a child, and I don't like to eat. bread."

He said this to prove that the crumbs were probably left by the monkey.

Wang Lu said, "Is it possible that other people ate it when they came to your room?"

Chu Bin shook his head: "This is even more impossible. Except for Aunt Zhang who usually comes to clean up, no one else will enter my house. Even my parents will not enter my house without my permission. Although my dad is usually very strict with me, they still respect me in this regard."

Shen Shen nodded, and he could also see that Chu Bin actually didn't have the bad habits of other playboys other than his fondness for racing cars.It's not that he hasn't come into contact with these rich second generations in Lincheng. There are quite a few of them in his hands. There are many people who bully men and women, who are involved in pornography, gambling, and drugs. At least these are not in Chu Bin. It shows that Chu Xinyang's tutor is still very good.

Shen Shen stretched out half of his body and looked out of the balcony. He found two obvious scratches on the outside of the balcony. Judging from the marks, it looked like monkeys left when they climbed up.It seemed that what Chu Bin saw was really a monkey, and that monkey was sitting on the guardrail at that time, staring at Chu Bin in the room, and it was holding a piece of bread in its hand.

Wang Lu asked, "Didn't you close the curtain at night?" She was referring to the curtain on the balcony. If Chu Bin had closed the curtain at that time, he wouldn't be able to see the monkey.

Shen Chen also looked at Chu Bin curiously. Generally speaking, many people would close the curtains when they go to bed at night, but Chu Bin didn't close the curtains, which is not normal.

Chu Bin frowned: "I don't think it's necessary, the curtains are drawn to protect my privacy, but you have also seen that the balcony is facing the mountain, and there are very few people on the mountain during the day, let alone night. Haunted. Over the years, I have been like this. The curtains are changed every two or three years, but they are almost never used. I close the side of the bay window at night because it faces the community. A small high-rise bungalow."

It made sense for him to explain it this way.

Chu Bin said again: "I was also a little scared yesterday. I usually don't even close this glass door. In summer, I used to sleep with this door open. I don't like to blow on the air conditioner. It takes a long time to turn on the air conditioner every time. I feel uncomfortable in the nose."

Shen Chen said, "You usually live at home?"

"It used to be, but in the past two years, because I have become obsessed with drag racing, I often have to play until midnight. I am afraid that my parents will be affected when I come back, so I rented a house outside to live by myself."

Wang Lu smiled: "The son of a big real estate developer in Qianzhou Province actually rents a house?"

Chu Bin was a little embarrassed: "I originally wanted to buy a set, but my dad refused. He said that if I want to live by myself, I can choose a set in the real estate developed by the company, but what's the point of that, my company The property is also owned by the company, so my every move is still under my dad's nose. I don't like that feeling, I am no longer a child, I hope to have a certain degree of freedom."

Shen Shen said angrily: "You are already very free, I don't think your father will support you to spend two drag racing?"

Chu Bin pursed his lips: "I made an agreement with my parents and decided to move back. As for drag racing, I really just like that kind of exciting feeling. Team Shen, I assure you, my partner and I Those brothers just love to play with cars, and they haven't done any other bad things."

Shen Shen glanced at him: "You don't know how dangerous the drag racing is, do you? It's because you are lucky that no big things happened, otherwise, do you think you can still stand here and talk to us?"

Chu Bin lowered his head: "I won't go racing again, I promised my mother to go back to work in the company."

Shen Chen didn't say anything more, this was Chu Bin's own business, so he wouldn't say anything more.

Wang Lu said: "Don't be too nervous, stay at home these two days, but it's best to close the doors and windows, and contact us in time if you find anything."

Chu Bin nodded, but he was still a little uneasy: "Captain Shen, you said the murderer would not really want to attack me, right? I was really wronged, and I didn't do anything to Yin Hui."

Shen Shen said lightly: "Be careful yourself, if you can't do it, you can change to a room that you think is safer, and keep in touch at any time."

Shen Chen and Wang Lu didn't stay in Chu's house for long and left, leaving only Chu Bin who was restless.

After seeing off Shen Chen and Wang Lu, Chu Bin returned to his bedroom, hesitated for a while, closed the glass door, and drew the curtains.If he had closed the curtains last night, he might not have been able to see that monkey, no, it should be said that the monkey would not have been able to see him.

"Are you saying that the monkey was really controlled by the murderer?" Wang Lu asked suspiciously.

Shen Shen shook his head, he was not sure, but he didn't allow anything to happen to Chu Bin, so he called Xiao Qiushui and asked Xiao Qiushui to arrange someone to watch Chu Bin's side, especially asking them to pay attention to whether there were any monkeys around Chu Bin Appear.

Although Xiao Qiushui was a little embarrassed, after all, his manpower was limited, but he knew that Shen Shen deliberately explained that Chu Bin was likely to be the next victim. He didn't dare to be careless, and arranged for an old criminal policeman and a strong student to take charge of this matter. matter.Of course, Shen Chen didn't let Chu Bin know about it.

At this moment, Fu Hong brought Huang Meng to Touqiao, and they met the mother and daughter Du Zhongping mentioned in an old house in Touqiao Fruit Lane.

The woman’s name is Cai Juan, 39 years old, and she runs a small laundry shop in Touqiao. Touqiao is an urban-rural fringe area, and most of them are tenants, or farmers from local urban villages. There is not much business here at all. .Fortunately, the price she set was cheap, and she was able to make a living.

Cai Juan is alone with her daughter Cai Ping. Cai Ping is 15 years old and a freshman in Lincheng Experimental Middle School.

Lincheng Experimental Middle School is a key middle school, and being able to study there shows that Cai Ping's academic performance is still very good.

Now that it is summer vacation, Cai Ping will help her mother in the laundry after finishing her homework every day, but the laundry is not open today, so Fu Hong and the others found their home.

"Pingping, go to Aunt Li's house to play for a while." Cai Juan sent her daughter away after hearing Fu Hong's explanation of her visit.

Fu Hong looked at the place where the mother and daughter lived. It was less than twenty square meters, and there was only one big bed in the room. There was a 27-inch color TV set on a very old TV cabinet, and a three-door TV was next to it. The wardrobe, in terms of color, should be old, and there is a dining table, three chairs, and none of the sofas.

There is a photo frame on the bedside table, inside is a photo of the mother and daughter, both of them are smiling, especially Cai Ping's smile is very bright.Next to the photo frame were several medicine bottles. Fu Hong picked up the medicine bottles and looked at them, and found that one bottle was anti-cancer medicine.

Cai Juan was pouring water for the two of them. Seeing Fu Hong check the medicine bottle on the bedside table, she said flatly, "Those are all my medicines, and I have survived to this day with these medicines. The house is messy, and you are sitting at the dining table." Sit here." She said and put the two glasses of water on the dining table.

In fact, the house is not messy. Although the room is small and the furnishings are simple, it is well organized and clean.
